Only 17 books and two box sets to go!
Okay, so my life is a read-a-thon, but this month is different!
I'm having a no buy month. That's
right. I'm not buying any books for the month of June.
Alright, so I may have caved, twice, but they were both under $2.00. I don't usually advocate not buying books, but I had over 32 books in my TBR and two of them are box sets with at least four stories a piece in them.
I needed to stop buying and start dwindling down the spur of the moment 'on sale now' buys, historical romances (I just hadn't been in the mood for), and those free for all freebies.

Those freebies are addictive but at
least I'm discriminate with them. I rarely download a freebie just
because it's free. The premise has to interest me and if it's short,
all the better.
I'm not a big novella person and I don't usually buy anything under 100 pages but I have OCD which means when I start reading something I have to finish it. Even if I'm just not into it.

I almost hit a wall this weekend when there was a summer freebie e-book event. I was picky about my downloads and powered through 7 of the 14 I picked up. I've read the good the bad and the ugly these past three weeks. I have 16 books and 2 box sets to go and four days until July and I can start buying again.
Here are the stories I'ved enjoyed the most so far. Get your note pad or e-readers ready. Some of these are still free, so get them while they're hot!

Cajun Hot by Nikita Black: Great stand alone. I can't wait to buy and read Nikita Black's Slave for Love. *162 pages, erotic m/f with some m/f/m

Bad Girl Lessons (Gresham
County 1)

thoroughly I can't wait for July 1st

Boy Secrets. *116 pages erotic m/f

Untamed Hunger (Alpha
Colony) by Aubrey
Ross : Stand
out shifter story that felt fresh and different. Ms. Ross goes very
sci-fi with her shifters, she refers to as morphs. They are
genetically altered in labs and that appeals to me way
more
than the paranormal conundrum of mysterious or cursed shifters. I
hope she kept her term 'morph' throughout her series.
Short and hot I will be purchasing the next in the series. They are
all under 80 pages and set $1.99 which I think is reasonable. *81 pages erotic m/f
*Free

the Club Wicked
